Who Is Throwing What?

Given that a method in the .NET Framework could throw any number of exceptions (under various

circumstances), a logical question would be “How do I know which exceptions may be thrown by a

given base class library method?” The ultimate answer is simple: consult the .NET Framework 3.5

SDK documentation. Each method in the help system documents the exceptions a given member

may throw. As a quick alternative, Visual Studio 2008 allows you to view the list of all exceptions

thrown by a base class library member (if any) simply by hovering your mouse cursor over the

member name in the code window (see Figure 7-6).
